Manual BG41/BG42/BG43
Subject to change to cater for technical progress
About this Manual
This manual describes the operation of the communication processors SSM-BG41/42/43. The
modular communication processor SSM is an intelligent carrier building block, upon which a series
of input, output and communication modules can be equipped.
Depending on the building block, up to 3 expansion boards can be optionally combined.
It can be inserted into automation equipment 115U (without fan) up to 188U, as well as into central
or add-on equipment.
Overview
Chapter 1: Introduction
In this chapter you will find general safety information on the handling of
building blocks liable to electrostatic danger. An overview of the modules which
can be used is also provided.
Chapter 2: Interface building blocks
The building blocks BG41, BG42 and BG43 are introduced in this chapter, as well
as the block diagram firmware and details on memory distribution firmware.
Chapter 3: Interface modules
Chapter 3 attends to the usable modules. You will find a description to the
structure, mode of operation and allocation of pins. The use with or without data
handling blocks will be described for the module SSI, counter, analogue
input/output and DCF77.
Chapter 4: Software
In this chapter you will find instructions on how to parameterize the buidling
blocks. For parameterizing you can use the VIPA data handling blocks or you can
parameterize the building block via interface channel. The large part of the chapter
attends to the use of building blocks with procedures e.g. STX/ETX and 3964(R)
with or without RK512.
Chapter 5: Installation
The configuration of a building block is described in this chapter. Instructions are
given on how to adjust the address, on the function of the plug connector and on
the voltage supply of modules. Within this chapter you are also provided with
information on the start-up response of a configured building block, as well as
help in fault diagnosis. Apart from construction guidelines, which contain
information on the interference immune construction of stored programmable
controls, program examples of different transmission protocols are also detailed.
Chapter 6: Technical Data
In this chapter technical data on building blocks and modules is provided.
